- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella, plus additional for sprinkling on the iron
- 1 tablespoon almond flour or 1 teaspoon coconut flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- Heat the waffle maker.
- In a small bowl, beat the egg with a fork until it is well blended (as for scrambled eggs).
- Stir in cheese, almond or coconut flour, and baking powder until well blended.
- For extra crispness, scatter a little mozzarella over the waffle iron’s bottom surface.
- Let it melt for a moment, then spread approximately half the batter onto the bottom surface.
- Top with a few sprinkles of extra mozzarella, if you like.
- Close the waffle iron and allow the chaffle to bake until it stops steaming.
- Lift the lid — if it offers any resistance, cook a few moments longer — and transfer the finished chaffle to a paper-towel lined plate to cool.
- Repeat with the remaining batter, using mozzarella sprinkles before and after adding the batter, if you like.
